An upcoming gangster flick starring John Abraham and Kangna Ranaut, set in Mumbai of the 1970s and '80s has the character of a newspaper editor exposing the gangs activities.

Actor Arif Zakaria has been roped in to essay the character of the editor who fearlessly exposes the gang wars. As Arif loves to write as well as blog, it's a role he is is looking forward to.

Wonder which newspaper editor of that era inspired the film's makers for this characterisation?
